I had a problem with Return to Castle Wolfenstein and sound.  My problem is
still there, but I am able to get around it sometimes.  I have two sound
cards and only one is RH 7.2 compatible sometimes.  I have to occasionally
remove the one that is mostly incompatible and let Kudzu uninstall it and
then shutdown, reinstall the card and then reboot and tell Kudzu to "DO
NOTHING" about the new card.  I don't have the experience with Linux to tell
the system which card to use if both are installed.  It always chooses the
incompatible one by default and then I get no sound.  BTW - is there some
way to tell the system which card to use by default??

Sorry this is probably no help for your problem.  I hope someone can help
with my problem.

Bill
